Ballot Text

Technical Summary

   This document enhances the BGP OPEN message to establish an agreement
   of the (peer, customer, provider, Route Server, Route Server client)
   relationship of two neighboring eBGP speakers to enforce appropriate
   configuration on both sides.  Propagated routes are then marked with
   an Only to Customer (OTC) attribute according to the agreed
   relationship, allowing both prevention and detection of route leaks.

Working Group Summary

   The WG group consensus for this draft goes across two WGs (GROW and IDR) 
   with both working group lending their support to define the problem 
   and design a series of fixes that can be deployed in operational networks. 
   While the discussions have been lengthy, there is solid support between
   operators, researchers, and the members of 2 WGs (GROW and IDR).
